Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

I grew up in a country that insisted these two guys were somewhere to the left of Fidel Castro.

Show me what a True Progressive American Politician looks like, please.

Sooooo... you don't know who Bernie Sanders is? That's a "progressive" - or, more accurately, an edgy liberal.

I'm going to go ahead and assume that even here, on a (supposedly) anarchist community, I will still have to waste my energy explaining to liberals how their own ideology actually works?

Sooooo… you don’t know who Bernie Sanders is?

He's the guy who spent twelve years stumping for Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, right?

waste my energy explaining to liberals how their own ideology actually works?

Does liberal ideology work? Seems like its in full collapse at the moment.

Yeah... you know that thing "progressives" were doing right up to the election?

Does liberal ideology work?

You'll know when it stops working - you'll see liberals roll out the red carpet for fascists while pretending they cannot do anything to stop them. Do you see anything like that happening now, perhaps?

Buddy, lol you can put your guard down. The person you are replying to is not arguing in favor of liberalism, they are being facetious and that picture was posted in jest.

Instead of a politician, what about a civil revolutionary?

Martin Luther King Jr. was a leftist.

He was a socialist, not an American leftist. He was a goddamn dirty commie that the FBI tried to get him to commit suicide. And libturds like to whitewash's ass. Martin Luther King was killed by the FBI. Then he was paraded around as a mascot for neoliberalism and the libturds. The Empire made him a mascot and gave him a holiday. In Empire, you have many holidays, gladiator games, and idols to worship.

Socialism falls under leftism.

Ah, the United States (ca. 2016)

Your post makes me think you somehow believed them...
